If you don’t already know what desktop you’re going to use I’d suggest KDE Plasma. It’s pretty close to Windows out of the box, and as another comment pointed out there’s Tiled menu for it which is basically a clone of Win10s menu.

I’ve seen quite a few people rocking NixOS with Hyperland. And I thought the whole idea of Nix was to be more stable than most rolling releases?
I don’t use either so I’m far from an expert on this.
They wanted to many years ago but the EU actually stopped them, out of fear Microsoft would have the monopoly on anti virus software or something.
Aaaa fuck off I still play BF1 and doubt I’ll get an origin refund after 400hours gameplay

Good onya mate!
Luckily the laptop doesn’t use Nvidia.
Hopefully soon my own desktop won’t either >.>
You can change the core count AFTER making the VM which I agree is really annoying.
Besides that everything else has worked more reliably than others options I’ve tried.
I hate to say it but having a full desktop is becoming more and more of an enthusiast setup.
Even laptops are becoming somewhat niche as people more just use their phone for all web browsing.
I understand having updates go south on you, I do use a rolling release on my own PC, Annnnd Windows 10 before that.
But I’m paranoid about security, increasingly so in recent times. So I at least want him on an updated web browser.
I am a KDE enjoyer and use it on my own desktop. But Gnome works really well for touchscreen devices and my dad has already gotten used to it so.
Gnome Boxes has worked pretty well for me.
I honestly forgot Debian had a none stable version.
He’s not too picky with web browsers as long as it…well browses the web.
I’ll give it a go and hopefully get 4 years away from being tech support. Thanks!
That’s what I’ve heard just wanted to see if anyone on here had experience just letting it update in the background.
Videos of the Steamdeck showed me how good gaming on Linux had gotten and that’s when I started looking into switching.
I already hated using Windows 10 so didn’t take me much convincing to look at alternatives.
I’m not a programmer or work in the I.T. field in anyway. But I have been messing around with computers since I could remember so I’m no stranger to tweaking, breaking and trying to repair things.
Alterware Is the updated build of iW4x you can still download.
Works for either Steam or old iW4x builds if you still got the files laying around.
Just letting people know the files for the mod got leaked and some people are working on reviving it already.
There was a discord giving out the leaked build but it got shut down but over 1000 people are currently playing it.
To add to the software point, STOP buying hardware that requires some shitty software to fully work.
I did this back in the Windows 7 days years before I even knew anything about Linux. But Razers rootkit managed to load in before the Win7 login screen then crash it. After that I avoided any peripherals with mandatory software and it made my transition to Linux a lot easier than most people I know.
Nope just Steam
As someone who gave up on the Call of duty series after Ghost. I only bought BO3 when workshop support got added and haven’t regretted it.
It’s THE game for zombies fans in the current day.
I used to use ArcMenu back when I ran Gnome on PopOS and I remember you could switch the layout between a lot of different menu styles.
Wasn’t just the Win7 style one.
